The number of weapons bought by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has reportedly surged 700 percent under President Donald Trump—and even includes chemical agents and warheads.

Federal purchasing logs show ICE spent $71,515,762 on “small arms, ordnance, and ordnance accessories,” including military supplies, weapons, and ammunition, in the nine months between Jan. 20 and Oct. 18.

This is up from $9,715,843 over the same period in 2024, according to an analysis by Popular Information.

This Sept. 29 alone, $9,098,590 was spent with rifle-maker Geissele Automatics.

Popular Information says most of the spending was on armor and guns, but there were also “significant purchases of chemical weapons and ‘guided missile warheads and explosive components.’”

The increased purchases by the Department of Homeland Security agency have caused public alarm regarding why Trump might be arming his domestic law enforcement so heavily.
